Hello all.
This is going to be my first build log. Iv always been fascinated by the P3 Orion and there don't seem to be many plans floating about in the inter-webs for a P3. I did manage so find a very detailed set from Australia though. I've built my share of the FT planes and a few of the others scattered around the site here so this will serve as my contribution to the community. There has to be one or two Orion fans on here. The plans I have are scaled at 1:10 120" WS 140" fuselage. Really really big for foam board, so the plan is to scale it to a 60" WS, big enough to have fun but not excessive. Ill try to keep this thread up to date as the build progresses. here are a few starter images. All of my work is done in Solidworks. Once the prototype is design is finished Ill post up a beta plan for anyone who wants to try. Final drawing package will go up once the prototype is built and tested. Thanks to everyone for the awesome builds.
